Abstract

This study examines how connected Latino adolescents from low SES backgrounds are to social media and the extent to which cyberbullying experiences impact school adjustment (e.g., school safety). The findings reveal that Latino youth are highly connected to social media, and their cyberbullying experiences are related to lower school adjustment.
